A sprinter reaches his maximum speed vmax in 2.5 s from rest with constant
acceleration. He then maintains that speed and finishes the 100 meters in the overall time
of 10.40 s. Determine his maximum speed vmax:
[10.93 m/s]
A
В
100 m
t = 0
t = 2.5 s
t = 10.40 s

Small steel balls fall from rest through the
opening at A at the steady rate of two per
second. Find the vertical separation h of
3.
the two consecutive balls when the lower
one has dropped 3 meters. Neglect air
resistance.
[h = 2.61 m]
Hint:
Problem can be solved easily by taking A
as the reference point and downward
direction as positive. Then, x, v, and g will
be positive for the falling body.
